PICARD: Data, shields up DATA: Brilliant! Shields can reduce damage we sustain. Not immunity. Not hubris. Just prudence. It's not precaution—it's strategy. [camera shakes] WORF: HULL BREACHES ON NINE DECKS DATA: Here's what happened: you told me to raise shields, and I didn't

Love this clip from today. Triggernometry has a climate change denialist Ian Plimer on to set him up with softballs. Their "pushback" questions are always "why do those lying climate change scientists disagree with you?" Then after he lays out a series of false, debunked, and misleading claims, they follow it up with a "how could anyone disagree with the obvious truths you are spouting?"
The Triggernometry boys give tough interviews. I think the most common question asked on Triggernometry (usually following an insane rant by a crank) is "isn't it a sign that the world has gone crazy that anybody disagrees with you about that?"

One of my new year resolutions is to update my online MOOC. The first has been online for a decade, and around 7000 people enroll each year. That is a lot, and it is worth updating. I will combine both MOOCs into one, update everything, and align it with my free textbook.

Dr. Damania:  You and I are both vaccinated... I can say with confidence because I’ve looked at the data, like our chances of giving each other COVID are- Dr. Bhattacharya:  Are zero. Dr. Damania: Pretty much zero…
Replying to @19joho
Nowhere in this clip does @DrJBhattacharya claim that the vaccine reduces changes of transmission. Yet there are plenty of clips of Fauci, Biden, Harris, et al stating that.

I sat down for an in-depth discussion with anthropologist Dr Chris Kavanagh @C_Kavanagh to discuss the phenomenon of modern, secular gurus and their influence on our world cc: @GurusPod youtu.be/j4S--I7mx0g

Really enjoyed this interview with @PhilippMarkolin on @GurusPod regarding the Covid "Lab Leak" theory. Bottom line: scientific consensus leans strongly toward natural wet-market origin for Covid, not a lab leak. Fantastic overview of the evidence here. decoding-the-gurus.captivate…

Pretty refreshing to see this. It’s still a good video but some of the reactions to it have been 😩.

@JoeriSchasfoort takes a fair look at Gary’s economics and comes to many of the same conclusions as @GurusPod. Good episode, recommend 👍 youtu.be/BRcWIXMQze8

Thank you, @ArthurCDent & @C_Kavanagh for such a fun conversation! We talked about shamanism and its many manifestation and analogues, including messiahs, money managers, Silicon Valley CEOs, and, of course, gurus.
Out now, our discussion with Manvir Singh, using our special meandering interview methods to explore whether Jesus & the Buddha were shamans, the parallels between the Siberian tundra & Silicon Valley, and if Dialogos with Hermes count as a soul flight. decoding-the-gurus.captivate…

Some dreams *do* come true. I'm in Tokyo at the moment for a one month holiday in Japan. And I got to meet the one and only @C_Kavanagh of @GurusPod fame. We even recorded an episode together with @ArthurCDent. So much fun! Here are the receipts.

Anyone who takes Huberman too seriously might want to complete my Metascience course assignment where you get to dive into his understanding of statistics and his confirmation bias: daniellakens.blogspot.com/20…
Starting tomorrow, and every Monday thereafter, full length episodes of the Huberman Lab podcast will be released on @X. Thank you for your interest in science!
